Defra has announced the common user charge (CUC) rates and how the charge will apply to imports entering Great Britain through the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel from 30 April 2024.
Please see the attached link for the official Defra guidance.
PLEASE NOTE: The guidance does not provide details on the payment mechanism, but it indicates agents lodging IPAFFS declarations on behalf of their customers will be responsible for settling the payment.
Further clarification will be shared as soon as it is received from the authorities.
